SUMMARY:

Although CKD evolves into its terminal phase with the need for hemodialysis and patients present physical and functional impairment, they are generally considered sedentary. As the nephrologist is the health professional who primarily monitors these patients, and considering that an intradialytic exercise program would benefit them, the present study was concerned with analyzing the knowledge of nephrologists about intradialytic exercise and its benefits. The objective of this study was to evaluate the knowledge of Brazilian nephrologists regarding guidance for carrying out intradialytic exercise for patients with CKD and information about the importance of intradialytic exercise during training as a nephrologist. This is a cross-sectional study (Survey), developed with Brazilian nephrologists registered with the Brazilian Society of Nephrology from February to July 2023 and approved by the institutional research ethics committee (nº 5,882,724). Data collection was carried out using a questionnaire specifically developed on the Google Forms platform. As a result, a total of 262 nephrologists (7.6% participation) effectively answered the questionnaire. Nephrologists who have knowledge about exercise (OR 11.36; 95% CI 2.92 to 44.07; p<0.01) and recommend exercise during the intradialysis period (OR 8.03; 95% CI 1. 50 to 42.79; p=0.01) are those who guide their patients to carry it out in clinical practice. Regarding knowledge of the importance of physical exercise received during nephrology training, both those professionals who did not receive this information during their training (OR=8.84; 95% CI 1.04 to 74.71; p=0.04) and those who had received it (OR=12.93; 95% CI 1.53 to 109.15; p=0.01), indicated intradialytic exercise. It was also observed that the more years of training in nephrology these professionals had, the less likely they were to have received information about intradialytic exercise (OR=0.13; 95% CI 0.04 to 0.39; p<0.00). In conclusion, nephrologists with knowledge about intradialytic exercise were more likely to guide their patients, and those professionals with longer experience in the area were less likely to have received information about intradialytic exercise.
